Question Posted Wednesday January 23 2008, 9:52 pm
Bascially my friend is rele nice. But she gets what she wants alot of the time-spoiled. She gets away with alot of BS. She curses at her parents often, even when her friends are around. And I know she is jealous because I have invited my friend over who is one of her best friends, but not her b/c she acts like a jerk alot of the time. But I mean she is fun to hang around with. She is bossy. And recently my best friend told me that she called me a bitch behind my back and meant it. I like her and all, but shes always been like this and it's getting worse. I am 14 by the way and so are my friends. Gurls-USA

Don't try to over power her, don't start anything about her, just don't. Of course, there is a possibility your friend made that up because she doesn't like her(the friend not liking the bossy friend). But your likely to say, "No! SHe wouldn't do that! Shes awesome..." so don't even think about that. Just ignore it, and if its true, talk to her about it. If its not, don't think or worry about anything.
And BTW most people tend to be like that these days. So its actually a very common thing. Especially the "bitch-behind-the-back" story. Its all just to try and piss you off. Whether it works or not is upon your tolerance level. And everyones level is different. So if your tolerance to that sorta thing is low, then you need to learn to build it up. If your tolerance is already pretty high up, just do what you do. [ Psycotheis's advice column | Ask Psycotheis A Question ]

but, i would say, ignore it. don't say youre sorry and if it gets bad or if she confronts you, simply tell her why. tell her that she is not fun to hang out with because she is so bossy and sometimes you wished she acted differently.
AngelofMercy answered Wednesday January 23 2008, 9:58 pm: The best thing to do is call her on it. Let her know that she is being a total jerk from he** and she needs to calm down. Let her know that Earth does not revolve around her, and if she truly wants to keep you as a friend then she needs to knock it off. Stand up for yourself, how you feel, and what you feel is right.
